Writing

Longer write-ups on systems and security, in more detail than a project card allows.

  • Dolomite, an operating system for a small team

    A multi-user NixOS we own end to end, so we can afford to be modern, self-built, and correctness-first.

  • Rewriting the NixPak launcher in Rust

    What a port teaches you: the deleted Go source that is still the spec, a resurrected deadlock, and the 9000-token wall nobody documents.

  • manage, the Dolomite deploy tool

    One front-end for the whole machine lifecycle: build, provision, deploy, and secrets, reaching targets colmena and deploy-rs cannot.
